Some fabrics just stop you in your tracks — this red spotty velvet was one of them. 🍒
I found it headed for landfill and honestly couldn't believe my luck. Soft, rich, a little bit retro and a whole lot of fun — the moment I picked it up, I knew exactly what it wanted to become. So, I brought it home to my studio and hand-stitched it into this.
The velvet exterior feels genuinely luxurious — the kind of bag you reach for just because it makes you happy. The bold spot pattern brings playful retro energy that works at the weekend market, a lunch date, or an afternoon wandering the shops. Fully lined with an internal pocket, so your essentials stay put.
And because I love a little bonus, this bag comes with a matching velvet pouch — for keys, lip balm, cards, coins, all the tiny things that usually vanish into the depths of a bag.
Like everything at Will Thread, this is completely one of a kind. The velvet's been rescued, the design's unrepeatable, and once it's gone, it's gone.
